Movie Review - Diana Miranda I09

                                                               17 AGAIN


                                           REVIEW

17 Again is a 2009 American comedy film directed by Bur Steers. It is the story of 37-year-old Mike
(Mattew Perry) who becomes a 17-year-old high school student after a chance accident. The film was 
released in the United States on April 17, 2009.

In 1989, teenager Mike O'Donnell is the star of Hayden High School's basketball team. On the day of the
final game, Mike will be observed and may win a scholarship to college. However, his girlfriend Scarlet tells 
him that she is pregnant and Mike does not play the game. Twenty years later, Mike is a complete loser 
who blames Scarlet for his failures. He is not promoted to sales manager after working sixteen years at the 
same company; Scarlet is divorcing him; his teen-aged son Alex and daughter Maggie hate him; and he is 
temporarily living with his best friend, the eccentric and immature millionaire Ned Gold. Mike nostalgically 
visits Hayden where an old janitor talks to him about second chances in life. During the night, he sees the 
janitor jumping from a bridge into the river and he unsuccessfully tries to help the man. He then discovers 
that he is seventeen again. Further, he discovers that he has a second chance to fix his relationship with 
his family.

It's filled with famous actors, nice romantic scenes and many cases of discuss for youngers. The acting 
(particulaly Zac Efron) is very  interesting. the big problem is that there are 
a lot of sexual discussion and 
innuendo, thematic material, and scenes with teens drinking, making out, and mercilessly bullying 
each other. I gave this 2009 movie three out of five stars. This a good option for a night for young
friends.
